March 1 (Reuters) - Wall Street enjoyed its strongest
session in a month on Tuesday, led by financial and technology
stocks after encouraging U.S. factory and construction data
suggested the world's biggest economy was regaining momentum.

The S&P 500 closed 2.39 percent higher, leaving the index
down 3 percent in 2016 after partly recovering in recent weeks
from a steep selloff in January. A rally in Apple shares helped
give the Nasdaq Composite its strongest day since August.
